I nominate James Caig's post 'The Bottom Half of Culture', a write-up about The Story 2013. I thought it was beautifully written. http://seewhathappensblog.com/2013/02/25/the-bottom-half-of-culture/

This, from Helen Edwards. Not to reopen the deathly debate about whether 'blogging is killing planning'. But is IS a timely reminder that for the most part, we're surrounded by pub bores. Moreover it is a wonderful example of what lucid, concise, elegant writing looks like, when the internet seems to serve as an excuse to slap down half-baked prose:

Gosh - thank you Neil - great to be in such esteemed company. Problem is the other posts - erm... they're too good. In future could we not set an age limit for some of the others - something like age 11 would suffice? Ta.
